A sudeley castle cottage that sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms

This pretty, 3-bedroom, semi-detached cottage is named after Queen Mary (the wife of King George V), who visited the Dent-Brocklehurst family at Sudeley Castle in 1944. The cottage sleeps four people and can additionally accommodate a cot.
The accommodation is arranged over two floors. Guests enter from a covered porch into the open-plan kitchen/dining room area with a large under stairs storage (housing baby and cleaning equipment). A back door opens from the kitchen out to a small seating area.

Off the dining area, and down two stairs, is the living room with two large double sofas, a coffee table, occasional tables, and a flat-screen TV with DVD player, and French doors out to the seating area.
Upstairs there is one double bedroom with a large dressing area, one twin bedroom, and a newly refurbished family bathroom with a large walk-in shower.

Ground Floor

Dining Area:
Guests enter Queen Mary Cottage through the covered front door into the open plan kitchen/dining room. Beside the dining area is a handy under stairs cupboard housing baby, cleaning and ironing equipment.

Kitchen:
The kitchen has all the appliances, cookware, crockery, and glassware you need for a self-catering holiday, including a Neff Oven & Hob, fridge, freezer, dishwasher, washer/dryer, microwave, toaster, kettle, and Nespresso coffee machine. (See ‘Facilities' above for further details.) A welcome pack of teabags, Nespresso coffee pods, hot chocolate, milk, biscuits, jam/honey mini pots, boiled sweets are provided for your first day at the Cottage.

A back door opens from the kitchen out to a small seating area. The kitchen overlooks the rear of the property towards the River Isbourne.

Living Room:
2 large double sofas, a coffee table, occasional tables, and a flat-screen TV with DVD player, and French doors out to the seating area.

First Floor

Bedroom One:
The main bedroom is entered via a large dressing room with a window over the main courtyard and furnished with a built-in cupboard, antique dressing table, and mirror. Step down two steps to the bedroom, featuring a double divan bed with bedside tables and touch-dim bedside lamps, and a pretty window overlooking the cottage courtyard.

Family Bathroom:
The newly refurbished bathroom with Shaker-style panelling has a large walk-in shower, a large sink with a mirror, a dual flush toilet, and a heated towel rail. Complimentary toiletries are provided including hand soap, shower gel, hand wash, vanity kit, shower cap and toilet paper.

This twin room with rear views towards the River Isbourne has two single beds, a hanging cupboard, and a shared bedside table with touch-dim bedside lamps.

Lovely cottage. Well decorated and spaced out. Great location for exploring the wider area and walking. Castle has rich history and well worth a visit.

A lovely cottage with plenty of thoughtful extras

Beautifully clean and well furnished, with please outside seating and thoughtful extras such as a welcome pack of biscuits, milk, etc. Some minor decorative issues (bathroom windowsill, for example) and small oversights (such as flashlight batteries being flat). The wifi was pathetic and we were not convinced the router was switched on. Overall an enjoyable and comfortable stay.

Perfect place to stay!

Wonderful place to visit the Cotswolds, beautiful walks from the door, complimentary entry to Sudely Castle and Winchcombe is also a very beautiful village but not crowded. Highly recommended!

Comfortable stay

We had a nice stay despite the weather. The car parking is excellent and the cottage well equipped. We thought it a little expensive but probably about right for the area. We have never had to pay a cleaning charge before. Free entrance to Sudely Castle is an added bonus.

Great litte place for exploring the Cotswolds

Easy to find and with ample parking available, this was a great little place for our family weekend away to explore the Cotswolds. The free entrance to Sudeley Castle was a bonus. The cottage was well equipped and well presented. Our only observation was the prior water leak from the shower that had come through to the ceiling below. It would be great if this could be sorted out.

Home from Home

This is the 2nd time we have stayed at Queen Mary. The cottages are in a lovely quiet location and the inside space is very comfortable for us and the dog. A short walk into the village provides great pubs and places to eat. Love being in the grounds of the Castle and there are so many lovely walks to enjoy. A couple of niggles, we needed to wash the kitchen floor with us and the dog traipsing in and out and I couldn't find a bucket and mop. Plus not enough toilet rolls supplied. :-)

A comfortable stay in an excellent location

The property was very clean and very well equipped with everything one could need for a visit. I was particularly impressed by the little touches such as providing milk for the first night plus a supply of tea, coffee and sugar. Everything was very comfortable and there was plenty of information for our stay about the property and the area. I only have two complaints. One was that the back door needs replacing. It was ill-fitting and on one particularly windy day the draught was unbelievable. Secondly the lighting in the kitchen and the lounge was over the top. The ceiling lights were exceedingly bright giving the impression of a hospital operating theatre! It was all or nothing. The lamps in the living room were OK if watching television but not enough if reading so we had to use the ceiling lights. It may have conformed to Health and Safety but killed any atmosphere. However, despite these complaints we had a very enjoyable stay.

Excellent will be re-booking

A lovely cottage especially if you are travelling with dogs. The enclosed courtyard was ideal for the morning and late night wee without having to put on their leads. The cottage was fully equipped with everything you could possibly want. Only a few minutes walk to Winchcombe town centre and a short drive to many other Cotswold towns/villages. Also a couple of minutes walk to be on the grounds of the castle with loads of walks for the dogs. An added bonus of course, was free access to the castle itself. The area was very quiet and we scarcely saw another person. We cannot wait to go again.

The cottage is well located with the village a short walk. It was super clean and v warm. I would recommend the cottage, the only down side was, the TV has 'no signal' on the weekend we stayed.

Do not stay until building next to cottage complete.

Was awful when we arrived after a long drive and music from a radio full blast from a large building site right next to our cottage. Awful view of builders rubbish and building site. Cottage lovely really quiet over weekend when builders not working. Great situation for seeing the Cotswolds. Would recommend when building work done.

Peaceful stay

Beautiful property with plenty of parking space. The place was clean and neat with all amenities needed for the first day. Shops are close by. sometimes the shops close earlier. Bed was comfortable. The stay comes with travel cot and baby high chair which made life easy for us. Easy access to castle.I recommend staying here.
